Sharp Keeps Still.

NEW YORK, July Jacob Sharp was
a little more gloomy to-day than he has
been, but there is no material change in
his condition beyond that. His wife at
tends him day and night. She is much
stronger than he, but is subjecting her
self to a great strain. Sharp's only call
ers are his counsel, his physicians and
his family. Acting under advice of his
counsel, he does not talk with reporters.

For the second race Conde had the
call over the field at S25 to S14 and ne
justified the confidence reposed in him,
for he. had 10 trouble in winning the
race as his driver listed in three straight
heats, the other horses never being able
to reach his sulky wheels, from start to
finish. A summary OF the race is as fol-
lows:

Between the heats of the trotting
events there was running race, mile
heats, best two in three, by lady riders,
and the purse was captured by Miss
MaSterman's sorrel, the time of the first
heat being so, and of the second 1:501a.
From the beginning of the concluding
event OH the card until three heats were
paced, no one doubted for an instant
that, barring accidents, Patsy Clinker
must win. His driver had no occasion
to push him, but allowed the steady lit
tie gray to jog pretty much as he
pleased, and landed him an easy winner
three times in succession. The other
horses behaved badly throughout, and
some of them merited the name of ran
nerS rather than PAGERS, judging from
their exhibition on the track. A sum-
mary Of this race is as follOwS:
J. Longshores G, Patsy Clinker.. 81 1 l

AT the conclusion of this race there
was a Scamper for the special train, and
the crowd was soon scattering home
ward to tell those less fortunate what a
good days sport had been witnessed.
THE GLOBE TIPS.
Third place was good enough also
for Richmond in the fourth race, in
stead OF second as phophesied. Maggie
j was second in the fifth race and Stone
buck third, while Choctaw carried off
first instead of second hOnOrs, with
/ Young Duke third in the sixth race.
! Grenadier and Earnest were second and
third respectively in the last race, so
that good place horses were named at
SheepShead. Five straight winners and
the same number of second horses at
the two tracks were good enough for one
day, and there will be some good chances
offered for tomorrow. All who fol-
lowed the GLOBES ideas yesterday
made money, and the success that has
rewarded the efforts of the tipSter has
encouraged him to renewed exertions
in behalf of those who wish to invest
their money advantageOusly at May

in the death of Henry Edgerton one of
the most gifted orators of the country was
taken from the stage OF action. Scarcely
any man had such a wealth of felicitous
language at ready command. He was less
adebater than an orator. His prepared
orations were like chiseled work by rare
artists, and for symmetry, grace and ele-
gance will remain models of the highest
order. Mr.. Edgerton was man of highly
cultured intellectual powers. Had he had
application, as lawyer he would have
attained to place in the foremost rank of
the profession; had he possessed self-con-
troll, he would have commended the atten-
ton of the Union by his brilliancy as an
orator and his force as thinker; had he
been more politician, he would have won
himself prominent place among Ameri-
can legislators and statesmen; had he been
ambitious, and less careless of the esteem of
his fellows, he would have been put by the
people into places of highest trust when
ever he chose toask the favor. Like many
another brilliant man, his intellectually
oyerbalaneed his Judgment, and made it
the slave of caprice. Henry Edgerton,
with all his unhappy faults, the outgrowth
Of a too generous nature and unanibitious
soul, will be remembered as one of finest
minds, most brilliant orators and apt
scholars the country has known.

that of yesterday. What the gentlemen in

not for personal vanity, but was in the

their homes; it is, therefore, wholly I'M
necessary to compliment them by name or
